What do you think of [name]Stellan[/name]? We have had [name]Stella[/name] on our girls list for a long time now but we love so many girls names with the elle/ella sound so we are trying to find alternatives. Our top choice for a boy is [name]Dean[/name], could [name]Stellan[/name] and [name]Dean[/name] be brothers? Are we better off just keeping [name]Stella[/name]? [name]Do[/name] [name]Stella[/name] and [name]Dean[/name] sound like a better sibset than [name]Stellan[/name] and [name]Dean[/name]?
For me, [name]Dean[/name] and [name]Stella[/name] are kind of mid-century names. [name]Stellen[/name] seems a lot more modern and Nordic to me. That said, [name]Dean[/name] and [name]Stellen[/name] both have a skater/surfer boy vibe to them.
[name]Stellan[/name] feels too trendy modern as a brother to [name]Dean[/name].
[name]Stella[/name] and [name]Dean[/name] is great, but [name]Stellan[/name] is a no for me.
I find [name]Dean[/name] so dated, but [name]Stellan[/name] much more modern sounding.
I much prefer [name]Stellan[/name] to [name]Stella[/name] but I think [name]Stella[/name] and [name]Dean[/name] sound better for siblings… hope that makes sense.
